A karaoke version of Jack's Obsession, edited from the CD version - Add '&fmt=18' onto the end of the URl else you will be unable to hear it!
Lyrics:
Something's up with Jack
Something's up with Jack
Don't know if we're ever going to get him back
He's all alone up there
Locked away inside
Never says a word
Hope he hasn't died
Something's up with Jack
Something's up with Jack
Christmas-time is buzzing in my skull
Will it let me be? I cannot tell
There are so many things I cannot grasp
When I think I've got it, and then at last
Through my bony fingers it does slip
Like a snowflake in a fiery grip
Something here I'm not quite getting
Though I try, I keep forgetting
Like a memory long since past
Here in an instant, gone in a flash
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
In these little bric-a-brac
A secret's waiting to be cracked
These dolls and toys confuse me so
Confound it all, I love it though
Simple objects, nothing more
But something's hidden through a door
Though I do not have the key
Something's here I cannot see
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
Hmm...
I've read these Christmas books so many times
I know the stories and I know the rhymes
I know the Christmas carols all by heart
My skull's so full, it's tearing me apart
As often as I've read them, something's wrong
So hard to put my bony finger on
Or perhaps it's really not as deep
As I've been led to think
Am I trying much too hard?
Of course! I've been too close to see
The answer's right in front of me
Right in front of me
It's simple really, very clear
Like music drifting in the air
Invisible, but everywhere
Just because I cannot see it
Doesn't mean I can't believe it
You know, I think this Christmas thing
Is not as tricky as it seems
And why should they have all the fun?
It should belong to anyone
Not anyone, in fact, but me
Why, I can make a Christmas tree
And there's no reason I can find
I couldn't handle Christmas-time
I bet I could improve it too
And that's exactly what I'll do
Hee, hee, hee
Eureka! I've got it

@xRemRooodx In the movie! But not in the soundtrack CD. I told you, often the OST versions are a little different.
Search on youtube "The Nightmare Before Christmas Sountrack #09 Jack's Obsession" and listen

@y7veyhaz No, in the CD version he says "Eureka, I've got it". In the movie says: "This year Christman will be ours". The two versions are different, like for many other movies.

Not true. There's sound, but I have to turn my speakers up all the way to hear anything. Good try, though. (woaz! How'd you get the screen so big? 8D)
It's good once you can hear it...thanks for trying.
